23 June 2022 — Engagement Session (completed)


In 2018, the Report to the Clerk of the Privy Council: A Data Strategy Roadmap for the Federal Public Service was published, putting forward a “whole-of-government approach to creating, protecting, using, managing, and sharing data as a strategic asset”.

Since publication, the context, priorities and maturity of the federal data landscape has evolved and there is a need to update the data strategy to highlight the most important priorities and actions that will allow the government to mature into the future.

Have your say and join us to kick-off the Data Strategy Renewal! Participants will hear from the Renewal co-leads Privy Council Office, Statistics Canada, and Treasury Board Secretariat on the scope and goals of this work, participate in a question and answer session, and provide real-time input on the current and future priorities that should be considered as the strategy is renewed.
